Benjamin Netanyahu News: Some top lawmakers boycotted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address to the US Parliament on Wednesday. At the same time, thousands of people marched towards the country's capital Washington in protest. During his address, Netanyahu defended the ongoing war in Gaza and condemned the American protesters. He vowed to continue the war that has been going on for 9 months until "complete victory". Netanyahu also requested to increase the aid being given by the US in the war against Hamas.

'We win, they lose'

The Israeli Prime Minister said, "America and Israel should stand with each other. When we stand together, something really big happens: we win, they lose." Netanyahu defended his country regarding the war, while also ridiculing those who oppose the war. Pointing to the demonstrations on the streets near the US capital, he described them as "benefiting" Israel's opponents.

Kamala Harris was not present

Many MPs clapped during Netanyahu's address, but the prominent MPs of the Democratic Party did not do so. More than 50 MPs of the Democratic Party and independent MP Bernie Sanders boycotted Netanyahu's address. During this, everyone's eyes were on the absence of Vice President Kamala Harris, who is the chairman of the upper house of Parliament, the Senate. It is said that she did not attend the House due to a pre-scheduled program. Apart from this, Democratic Party MP from Washington Patty Murray refused to be present during the address. Democratic Party MP from Michigan Rashida Tlaib also boycotted the address.

Netanyahu lashed out at the protesters

Netanyahu accused many protesters in America of standing with the terrorists who, according to Netanyahu, killed children during the Hamas attack on October 7. Republican Party's vice-presidential candidate JD Vance was also absent during Netanyahu's address, citing his busy schedule in election campaigning. Noa Arghamani, an Israeli hostage who was freed during the rescue operation in Gaza, was also present on the occasion.

Police stopped the protesters

Netanyahu has become the first foreign leader to address a joint session of both houses of Parliament four times, surpassing former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. Meanwhile, more than 39 thousand people have died so far in the ongoing war in Gaza. Extensive protests were also seen in the US regarding this. The protesters condemned Netanyahu's failure to release Israeli and American hostages held hostage after the attack on Israel on October 7. Police used pepper spray to stop the crowd of protesters moving towards the US capital Washington.
